MONTECRISTO

Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated brand of Havanas throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Havana smokers against which other brands are judged.

The name comes from Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo’, which was a firm favourite when read to the Torcedores (cigar rollers) at the factory where it was founded in 1935.

The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of a wide variety of vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast’s needs.

Whether it is within the classic medium-to-full line, the lighter Open Series or the newer, more powerful, Linea 1935, Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are all created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.

PURITOS

Montecristo puritos are the ideal choice for the smoker of mainstream cigars who wish to "upgrade" without a major leap in cost, or for the premium cigar smoker who would like to enjoy the unique taste of aroma of Cuban Tobacco During their now much briefer alfresco smoking breaks.

Bought a pack of these to try at Christmas when ordering a few sticks to top up the humidor. Cracking little smoke for when you can only get out of the office for 15 minutes. Will buy a pack or two every time I visit Robert Graham, a must have.

Have to say that these are a gem of 'quick' smoke, how anyone could want anything out of a supermarket in comparison to these is beyond me. Sure they aren't as deep in flavour as larger fuller gauge cigars but then that's not what they're about, these are for me a chance to have a smoke on a day-to-day evening when time or occasion does not permit a 'proper' cigar, but for the price and the quality (for a small cigar) I'm pretty amazed. Smoked slowly 15mins, an easy 10mins and very little bitterness at the end.

OK here goes. If you want an affordable everyday smoke, and are looking at these in preference to, say, the Hamlet range then 100% go for it, they are a great deal nicer. However, do not be under the illusion that these are on the same level as a handmade Monte, they simply aren't in terms of flavour or construction. Still, with that caveat, can heartily recommend these.

For the price,the quality is fantastic!,far better than hamlet,villiger,wintermans etc,beautiful woody spicy peppery kick from start to finish,however they do burn a little hot on the back of the tongue after about 2/3 of the way down but saying that most slender smokes do

Thought I'd give these a try as there are days when I fancy a puff but don't have time for my usual robusta. Have to say that I was pleasantly surprised! At first a little non-descript however the flavour improved as the smoke went on to become very earthy and woody. I imagine that I will get some more of these to keep handy for those time pressured moments when one really needs a puff to get you through.
